NS Reading Line on July 5
Author: dschlegel

It was a busy weekend but I still managed to catch a couple of trains here in eastern PA.

First up is the 23G rolling west at Bowers, PA. The hot weather certainly enhanced the aroma from those garbage containers!

One more...........

And finally I was able to catch the 260 headed west while walking Dixie around the mean streets of Topton, PA.

Enjoy and have a great week!

Great video!! I really like the evening light on the first one and the walking the "mean streets" view of the second video is a different and interesting perspective. Thanks for sharing!

That approaching car in the first video gave me quite a shock - were the cross bucks even lit?

That scared me too standing there as I was in a bad spot if it would’ve gotten hit. Turned out it was a railfan dad and son trying to get into the parking lot to catch a video.

Yes the flashers were flashing.
